Mark is talking about downloading and installing on the fly so as long as baked into the app it would be fine. Widgets do use foreign code if native. As long as the private key isn’t compromised, then you can keep using the same pair. One advantage to changing though would be to ensure that the

I’ll make a test stack. But the problem is, I click on item 1. Item 1 is hilited. Then I run a script with: Set the hiliteditem of widget “navbar” to 3 Item 3 does not hilite, but if I do, in script: Put the hiliteditem of widget “navbar” into theItem .. theItem is set to 3, but the widget’s

Ok, I can summarize what is happening here. When a card that contains a background with shared text disabled on a field, the data is indeed retained. The extra data survives saves and "compact this stack" as long as the shared group remains on any card. If you remove the group from the last

Thanks Richard. Disregard my nonsense about the EOF at 28KB, I misread the BBEdit output. The file did indeed have extra garbage after deleting all but 1 card. The extraneous data actually consists of the text of the background field from the deleted cards: “Lorem ipsum” occurs 2024 in the

I like the new Message Box API, but I've noticed that now that it's message-driven it's no longer immune to the lockMessages. I have a habit of putting in a simple "put" command here and there during development for diagnostics, and with the v9 changes "put" won't bring up the Message Box if

Ah… yes please report it if you haven’t yet done so. It should just be a matter of temporarily setting the MClockmessages to False before sending the message in MCB_setmsg then back to the previous state after. We do that elsewhere for things like dispatch. The result will be better than

You have to go to the Object menu and choose Place Group to see all of the orphaned groups. All I did to replicate was put the big field inside a group and made it a background. I’m sure it would be possible to delete them, but I would need to look for the process. On Wed, May 23, 2018 at 7:12 AM

Do Android widgets use foreign handlers? If only some of them would be excluded, it would be helpful to know which those are. A symbol or note in the inclusions list would be nice. Or am I conflating widgets with other extensions? I'm using the Android toast library. Would that count? It
